Growth rates are presented on a pro forma basis. See slide 27 for definition and additional information.
Royalty Receipts in the second quarter are typically lower than the first quarter as royalties for certain products or franchises are tiered and typically reset at the beginning of the year. Thus, second quarter Royalty Receipts (reflecting first quarter sales) often include royalties on sales at the lowest royalty tier.
The 2022 and 2023 results are calculated on a pro forma basis to exclude Accelerated Receipts (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as if Amendment No. 5 of the Credit Agreement had taken effect on January 1, 2019.

1. Phase 3 results timing for pelacarsen, litifilimab (SLE, CLE) and frexalimab are based on marketer guidance. 2. Phase 3 results timing for daraxonrasib (2L NSCLC) and seltorexant are based on clinicaltrials.gov. 3. Peak royalties are calculated using peak sales based on the marketer guidance (the midpoint is used when ranges are provided) for frexalimab, pelacarsen, and seltorexant. Peak royalties for litifilimab, Myqorzo and daraxonrasib are based on peak sales from analyst research estimates. For daraxonrasib, lower end of peak royalties assume the required Revolution Medicines draw (Tranches 1 and 2); upper end peak royalties assume maximum draw scenarios (Tranches 1 through 5).
